I decided to not do that for movies I've seen in the past because I'd go crazy. I really like giving ratings and reviews to films as I watch them though, it makes me think a little harder about why I did or didn't like something.

also they list individual episodes of Black Mirror. It makes sense, they basically ARE stand alone films, but it's still technically a TV show

I did one for just horror movies: https://letterboxd.com/daveski/list/the-30-best-horror-movies-of-the-2010s/ I'll probably do a best of the decade one at some point, although I feel less qualified because there are a bunch of major ones I haven't gotten around to seeing yet.

i tried reading one of his reviews and gave up after like three sentences. it's like a parody of an insufferable art student.

what's the least popular film you've all seen? not counting a weird short by a film student, mine is a bad Troma thriller from 1992 called State of Mind, with 22 views and on 22 lists. The next most popular one actually less views, but is on more lists.Darthemed posted:Something with 5 views and 1 list appearance is sorted as less popular than something with 5 views and 0 list appearances. I kind of think the arbitrary look to the sorting is why they haven't bothered to added an option to sort it in the other direction. were there any likes on the second film? as far as I can tell the "popularity" is just the sum of views + lists + likes

Pillowpants posted:Have they made it easier to just rate movies as I watch them? I don’t remember it being ever being different but yes it’s very easy. Search for a movie, click on the Rate/Review button, rate it. Or click “Review or Log” to also specify the date you watched it and/or write something about it.

Pillowpants posted:Right but I want to be able to click a movie, rate it and then have it go to the next movie. Letterboxd doesn’t work like that Not totally sure what you mean but there’s a “carousel” view when browsing or looking at a list. You can swipe through and rate each one without having to go to the actual page for the film.

Spatulater bro! posted:4 stars seems to be where I tend to settle, but I feel I have a very healthy ratings distribution. It makes sense for your average rating to be ~4 stars, assuming you are mostly watching films that interest you and that you expect to enjoy. My graph is similar.

Doesn’t even need to be a proper list, you can just browse by popularly, rating, year, genre, etc and you can scroll through the movies endlessly

Spatulater bro! posted:Does Letterboxd/TMDB have specific criteria for when it lists a TV series and when it doesn't? I got to thinking about this when I noticed The Queen's Gambit is on there. And when does a series merit having each episode have its own entry, ala Dekalog? From their FAQ page: quote:Do you support TV shows? Basically at their discretion.

The only time I use the "like" button is when I don't give something a star rating but did enjoy it (e.g. I'll log short films or mini-series but I generally don't rate them).Franchescanado posted:Does anyone else get reviews anxiety for 5 star movies? I often find it easier to write about stuff I didn't like than stuff I did like, especially on a first viewing.

kanonvandekempen posted:I've been watching random movies off the 'official top 250 movies history list', using a random number generator to have no choice in what I was getting. A few weeks ago I watched the fifth movie on the list: 'O auta da compadecida', a movie that is higher rated than the Godfather II, and it's complete poo poo? It has some of the top actors of Brazilian cinema, but the acting is intentionally atrocious, Everything about the movie is just really annoying, the story is a big nothing? I really wonder what is behind the absurdly high rating. There must be some social media campaign in Brazil to get this movie to the top of the website or something. Seems like the positive reviews are mostly in Portuguese, so it's probably a cultural/lost in translation thing. I wouldn't go off Letterboxd scores anyway unless it's from people you follow that have taste similar to yours. There are multiple Harry Styles concerts rated considerably higher than Citizen Kane or Vertigo

My best of the year: https://boxd.it/jV5mW Was going to be top 15 but I couldn’t narrow it down any further. Throughout the year I keep an ongoing list with rough rankings, and ended up with 78 films from 2022 on it. Quite a lot of good stuff this year. 1. Everything Everywhere All at Once 2. Pearl 3. The Banshees of Inisherin 4. Nope 5. Vortex 6. Glass Onion 7. Barbarian 8. The Fabelmans 9. We’re All Going to the World’s Fair 10. Decision to Leave 11. Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio 12. Prey 13. Weird: The Al Yankovic Story 14. Funny Pages 15. Avatar: The Way of Water 16. RRR E: also did top 15 Horror films: https://boxd.it/jUAs0 gey muckle mowser fucked around with this message at 03:04 on Jan 1, 2023 |

Ramrod Hotshot posted:Realized that all my ratings were bunching up between 3 and 4, with the most being 3.5, when 3s could be 2s and 3.5s could be threes. Contemplating re-rating my entire review catalog 3.5-4 is a pretty normal average rating, that's where mine is too. When I pick a movie to watch it's because it's something I'm interested in and I'm more likely to enjoy it than if I were watching just anything at random.

Detention (2011) and Detention (2019) Haven’t seen 2019 but 2011 rules so that’s my vote for the good one There are a couple other movies by that name too, but those two have by far the highest view count

yeah at $19 a year Pro is 100% worth it if you use Letterboxd with any regularity. No ads, the JustWatch stuff, filtering your feed, etc. The notifications when a movie on my watchlist is added to one of my streaming services is really handy, and the stats pages are a fun bonus too.
